The CoLiE competition offers two main tasks to address temporal classification and the
understanding of historical texts:
Task 1: Literary Epochs Classification
This task focuses on classifying texts based on literary epochs and their subdivisions:
● Sub-task 1.1:
Classification of texts into six major literary epochs when the corresponding books were
written: (1) Classicism (1660-1798), (2) Romanticism (1798-1837), (3) Victorian Literature
(1837-1901), (4) Modernism (1900-1945), (5) Postmodernism (1945-2000), and (6)
Contemporary (from 2000).
● Sub-task 1.2:
Classification of texts into particular epoch subdivisions: early (first quarter of the epoch),
middle (middle half), and late (final quarter). These periods differ in length between epochs
(due to the different lengths of the corresponding epochs). Also, the epochs of Classicism,
Romanticism, Victorian Literature, Modernism, and Postmodernism epochs were divided into
three periods, while the Contemporary epoch is divided into only two periods.
Task 2: ChronoText Classification
This task addresses temporal granularity by focusing on:
● Sub-task 2.1: Identifying the century of origin for a given text.
● Sub-task 2.2: Pinpointing the specific decade within that century when the text was
composed.
